The texts started on New Year’s Eve in 2015 and they met up for the first time 18 days later.

The victim’s mum had warned her daughter not to "go stalking" Johnson online after they became Facebook "friends".

Talking to her friends the schoolgirl had described the player as "creepy" when she first started talking to him.

During the trial Johnson’s girlfriend admitted she suspected Johnson was having an affair – before revealing how he had cheated on her with "quite a few" other women.

And she described their relationship as "not very good" last January at the time the former England ace was meeting the schoolgirl.

Johnson bowed his head as the mum-of-one blew the whistle on their romance during the trial.
